    Previously planned for showing on August 29, 2014, the release to cinemas of the western action drama Jane Got A Gun has been moved back to February 20, 2015 because of casting and production problems.

    Chappie Movie Spoilers, Release Date, Teasers [Chappie Becomes the Adopted Son of A Strange, Dysfunctional Family; But Chappie Is A Robot], Cast News, And More!

    The movie Chappie tells the story of a robot imbued with artificial intelligence who is stolen by two local gangsters who want to use him for their own nefarious purposes. Directed by Neill Blomkamp based on a screenplay he co-wrote with his wife Terry Tatchell, the science fiction action comedy thriller film will hit the theater screens beginning March 6, 2015. Sharlto Copley will portray Chappie while rappers Ninja and Yo-landi Vi$$er of Die Antwoord will play the roles of the two gangters who will kidnap him. The Chappie cast includes Hugh Jackman, Sigourney Weaver, Dev Patel, Jose Pablo Cantillo, Anri di Toit, and Watkin Tudor Jones. Blomkamp and Tatchell are best known for their work on the mock-documentary sci-fi “District 9,” a critically acclaimed film and a box office hit despite its modest production budget and its cast of relatively unknown actors. Compared with his other work Elysium, according to Movie Pilot , Blomkamp described Chappie as "a fundamentally more simple story, a comedy, a heartfelt story, in a science fiction setting." In an earlier talk with Empire, he said “District 9, Elysium and Chappie were all born out of some visual concept first. Chappie is the imagery, because I think I’m a visual person first, of this ridiculous robot character. It’s much more comedy based, and in an unusual setting.” Filming for Chappie started October 2013 and ended this February. The first promo banner for the film was unveiled at the halls of Comic-Con 2014 in San Diego.

I have all these wire hanging off of me....Brad is a really good guy with a wild imagination. If I don’t screw it up it will be a great film. You have to be careful what you say because everything is top secret, so I don't want to ruin it by telling you that everyone dies in the end. Oops, I’ve said too much." But of course, everyone knows that Clooney is a habitual prankster.

    Independence Day Sequel [Not One But Two Planned], Release Date, Spoilers [Set 20 Years After Independence Day 1], Teasers, Cast News [Will Smith Won’t Be In!], And More

    Two sequels for Independence Day, the 1996 blockbuster hit sci-fi movie about an alien invasion of earth, have been planned to form a trilogy. The new films would be titled ID Forever Part I and ID Forever Part II, according to director and co-writer Roland Emmerich, and they will be filmed back-to-back. In fact, 20th Century Fox, has already announced that ID Forever Part I is all set for theater showing on July1, 2016, almost exactly twenty years following the release of the original Independence Day movie. Emmerich and co-writer Dean Devlin, who also acts as producer, have already finished writing the scripts for the two sequels. In an interview last year with Entertainment Weekly, Emmerich revealed that the sequels will take off twenty years following the liberation of earth from the first wave of alien invaders. This time another wave of alien forces is poised to attack. “The humans knew that one day the aliens would come back. And they know that the only way you can really travel in space is through the wormholes,” said the director. The script for the first sequel has already been turned over to Carter Blanchard for polishing and rewriting as part of the pre-production process. Asked about the plots of the sequels, Emmerich revealed that “the first one ends on a little success, but only enough to give the humans hope. And then in the second one, they free themselves again.” Jeff Goldblum and Bill Pullman have confirmed that they will be returning to reprise the characters they played in Independence Day. However, ‘Capt. Hiller’ won’t be seen in ID Forever I and II because Will Smith declined the role which first established his name as a bankable movie star.

    James Bond 24 Movie Release Date, Spoilers [Spiced With More Humor, Gags?], Teasers, Cast News, And More

    The 24th installment in the spy film franchise series that is based on Ian Fleming’s James Bond novels is slated for theater release on October 23, 2015, in the UK and for November 6, 2015, in the US. To be simply called “Bond 24,” the new movie will again be directed by Sam Mendes, the director responsible for the blockbuster Skyfall, arguably the best Bond movie ever. The Skyfall screenwriters John Logan, Neal Purvis and Robert Wade will also be back to do the Bond 24 script. And of course actor Daniel Craig will be returning to reprise his character as James Bond. After minor delays caused by script rewrites, production is all set to begin by December of this year. The movie’s producers, Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, are reportedly already scouting for shooting locations in Morocco, Austria, and Rome. Bond films are known for their extensive use of scenes which take place in various places of the globe. Bond 24 may not immediately be taking off from where Skyfall left off. As Sam Mendes, in an interview at the Charlie Rose Show which aired on Hulu TV, puts it, “What we tried to do, and audiences seemed to embrace in Skyfall, is that for the first time, characters were allowed to age. And they were allowed to acknowledge – in a kind of a sly, mischievous way – the history of the franchise that they’d been part of.” So in Bond 24, can we expect the characters to age even more? Regarding the new Bond movie, Daniel Craig in a talk with Vulture said, “Hopefully we’ll reclaim some of the old irony, and make sure it doesn’t get pastiche. I can’t do shtick, I’m not very good at it. Unless it kind of suddenly made sense...” He may however have to brush up on his comedic timing. The rewritten script reportedly now carries more gags and witty repartee between his character and Miss Moneypenny and M. Aside from Craig, the other confirmed members of the cast so far only include Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris and Ben Whishaw.

According to Daily Mail, the forthcoming film will show Jack and his pirate crew in battle with the ghost of Captain Brand for possession of the strange magical Trident. It will also show Jack and Carina Smyth, Barbosa’s daughter and a suspected witch but is really just a scientist who knows her astronomy, falling for each other.

Franchise star Johnny Depp who plays Jack Sparrow said Disney and Bruckheimer invited him to collaborate with Nathanson on the script. He gave hints that this may be the last in the series. In an interview with Inquirer, he said, “So I have high hopes for that Pirates 5 because if that’s really the last one, which it probably is, I feel that we it to the audience who went and saw the films so many times. We’ll do it right and end it on a high note.”

    A trickier and fiercer Doctor set to battle T-Rex and more on Doctor Who’s next season

    One of the longest running British series that has created a worldwide sensation, Doctor Who is set to make a comeback this coming September 2014. We have said goodbyes to too many doctors already but with an open heart welcome, the new one with high hopes that he will be as good as a doctor as the ones before him. Here are some of the things we have gathered so far about the new doctor, and what is to happen on the series. The series have started filming last January 6 of this year with Peter Capaldi taking on the role of the doctor. According to Moffat, this season, they will be pushing the Doctor more by giving him a more familiar surrounding around him. Also, this season’s doctor is going to be older, but also trickier and fiercer. Moffat loves the idea of the Doctor’s regeneration and getting to create a completely new character. Fans will see him facing various creatures such as a T-rex, some droid and a new half-faced villain. By the second episode, we will be seeing both the Doctor and Clara venturing into the Dalek. The visit is long overdue and its director, Ben Wheatley teases that it will all be behind the enemy’s lines. If that’s not enough to excite you, there will also be a Robin-Hood themed episode to give us some entertainment which also involves us seeing robot knights. When it comes to Doctor Who, we should always have our eyes set to expect the unexpected. The show will premiere this 23rd of August 2014.

    How does it feel to be actually a part of a video game universe? Sony wants users to get that experience in the near future with Project Morpheus, a headset designed to complement the company’s PS4 gaming console.

    Google teams up with Razer to create a gamer friendly micro-console; enters a Sony and Nintendo dominated realm

    Search engine giant Google will be collaborating with Razer to create a micro-console, marking its crossover into Xbox and PlayStation territory. There has been no word yet as to its launch date and price range, but the partnership has gained considerable buzz. The newest additions to the growing line of Android-powered gadgets, micro-consoles were designed for users who want to have a little of everything: video gaming capabilities and excellent video streaming, but doing away with the need for constant console upgrades. Amazon came in early into this category with its Fire TV. Pitched as a gaming and media streaming device, hardcore gamers won’t be impressed graphics-wise. This is where Razor comes in. The San Francisco based company is known for its top-of-the-line, high resolution gaming laptops, tablets, and accessories. It recently launched Razer Blade, bannered as the world’s slimmest, high-resolution gaming laptop. According to Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan, this will be the console of the future, built for gamers of all levels, and just about everyone. “Built on Google’s incredible Android TV platform, the Razer micro-console incorporates not only hardcore and casual gaming, but music, movies and other entertainment and social applications, all on an affordable system.”

    Pebble Steel Smartwatch: Still Not The Smartest Smartwatch, But It Is The Best-Looking And Most Wearable Smartwatch In The Market Today

    The new Pebble Steel smartwatch is the “best smartwatch so far” says David Pogue of Yahoo Tech. And Eric Limer at Gizmodo agrees with that verdict, in addition noting that “Pebble Steel manages to be your most wearable option...it’s also the prettiest by far. Pebble beat Apple to making a gadget that is actually jewelry.” Pebble Steel though is basically still the same original 2013 Pebble smartwatch but with a new, more elegant makeover look. It has the same open-source Pebble OS v2, the same 1.26-inch 144x168 e-paper display, the same scratch-proof gorilla-glass coated screen, the same LED backlight, the same layout for the 4-button interface, the same ARM Cortex-M3 CPU, the same 130mAh battery with 5-7 day life, the same waterproof capability as the original plastic Pebble. Pebble Steel has the same level of functionality as plastic Pebble. What differentiates the new Pebble Steel from the original plastic Pebble smartwatch is just that its smaller and tighter case is crafted in marine grade stainless steel and it ships with both leather and metal watch bands. In fact, it now seems that Pebble Steel was not really meant to totally replace the $150 plastic original. Instead, it’s intended to be marketed side by side with the original as a classier, more presentable, less gaudy alternative. At its slightly higher price of $249, Pebble Steel can be worn by those who have to go to business meetings and fine dining restaurants. Pebble Steele comes in two finishes: brushed stainless steel or matte black. It began shipping January 28

    The Killing Season 4: The Final Season; Just Six Episodes And Its A Wrap-Up For The Show!

    The Killing will be returning to your TV screens on August 1 thanks to Netflix. The serial crime drama was twice canceled by the AMC network before the on-demand Internet streaming media provider came to the rescue with a six-episode order for this year’s final run. The series which premiered on April 3, 2011, was critically acclaimed and was well-received by the viewing public for much of Season 1. However, the “who killed Rosie Larsen?” plot was certainly not enough to sustain viewer interest on the show for three entire seasons. Fans who began feeling cheated by the seemingly never-ending investigation on the Larsen case turned to the social media to air their disappointment with the US version of Denmark’s “Forbrydelsen.” AMC canceled the show first in July 2012 but agreed to give it another go for a third season. On September 2013, AMC again canceled the series. However, the series cliffhanger of an ending to “The Road to Hamelin,” the last episode aired for Season 3, got the fans wanting for more. So, In response, Netflix ordered six episodes making up the entire fourth season that will all air on August 1 to tie up all the loose ends. Mireille Enos, the lead actor in the show, playing Det. Sarah Linden, when asked about the turn in events, told Toronto Sun that “What’s most helpful to me is to take the pieces that are positive and then turn a blind eye to everything else. So I’m mostly just grateful we had an audience base and we were doing the kind of kind of work that would warrant people to keep watching.”
